From the Fox Nation via Weasel Zippers - and we thank them both!
“In one of the bills before us, six million seniors are deprived of meals — homebound seniors are deprived of meals. People ask us to find our common ground, the middle ground. Is middle ground three million seniors not receiving meals? I don’t think so. We’ve got to take this conversation from a debate about numbers and dollar figures and finding middle ground there to the higher ground of national values. I don’t think the American people want any one of those six million people to lose their meals or the children who are being thrown off of Head Start and the rest of it.”
Hey, Nancy - want to solve the problem? Each time you cut a senior who is getting their meals (and pretty crappy over-priced meals they are, too) provided by a bloated bureaucratic government, turn their name over to a local church who will be more than happy to feed them. Maybe they'll get some decent food that way. Simple!“When I hear you speak about this issue, of course it’s the Gospel of Matthew: When I was hungry, he gave me to eat and the rest of it goes on. And when I hear Reverend Wallis talk about priorities, I can’t help but think about the fact that in these same budgets, we are talking about, they give tens of billions of dollars in subsidies to Big Oil to drill when they are making a trillion dollars over 10 years in profits, that we are giving tax breaks to companies to send jobs overseas. We’re doing that as we say to seniors, homebound seniors: “You no longer will have food coming to you in your homes.”

Reminds me of our own local budget "crisis". Cut spending or raise property taxes.
Our mayor says "I don't want to cut police and fire protection, and I don't think any of you do, either, so, therefore, we're raising property taxes by 7 3/4%"
Hmmmmm..... Did you ever consider getting rid of a few "deputy county recorders"? I don't think we really need 9 of them. How about a couple "deputy county treasurers"? I don't think we need 7 of them.
And so it goes. Lets play on the emotions of the citizens and all of the union workers stay employed.
Gotta love it! :)
The woman's a disgrace! Pelosi should have been excommunicated years ago. The Bishops who have allowed her to go on and cause grave scandal should be called out as well. We need to call out all the anti-Catholic Catholics and those who aide and abet their causing grave scandal to the Church.
